LOL, that's the only way I can beat you Case, if I'm not competing with you !
Thanks, It's gonna be my go2 method for big cooks for things like turkey, chicken, ribs etc.. A couple weeks ago I was doing quarters 26 at a time on it that came out really well
Thanks Foam we had 5 birds so enough for leftovers too! Our family loves the take home containers. Happy belated turkey day!
Thanks Steve, it was pretty much a 325-340* cook and went about 2 1/2 hours. One I pulled a little early and put skin side down over a wood fired grill I use and that was tasty too, the skin made for good snack food. lolI can't believe I'm looking at a picture of a turkey the day after thanksgiving and my mouth is watering! Great job!
How long and at what them did you smoke it?
Thanks tropics, It sure seemed good judging by the families reactions!
That is a lot of Turkey looks good.

LOL I tried!
LOL I tried!
Yes here's a better pic, they can be made but I happened to find some wine barrel rings....at least I think they were. The bigger diameter side barely fits inside the drum so it holds very snug which I'm glad because I didn't want to drill any more holes for bolts. Then I just notched them out with a grinder and drilled holes around the perimeter for more exhaust and more even heat. What I like is the rods just lift out with the food. I could see doing 18 or so racks of BB ribs. I'l have to get the pic of 26 chicken quarters later because it's on someone else's camera.
When I'm done using it I just insert a rebar rod in a exhaust hole and pop it back out.
I know Case....I'm really struggling between ugly cookers that don't work and putting out subpar food. People have been humoring me as to the quality of my food....dang I wish they'd just be honest
Absolutely, Gotta think you could hang a whole mess of fish!Great idea on how you did it. If you don't have an issue, I'll send some of your pics over to a friend of mine. I told him what you did and he liked the idea.
He has an ugly a55 smoker too. We humor him as well. We humor him so much, that he's the dedicated cook at fish camp!
Ah a whiskey camp LOL, that's all good!Not many fish smoked at our camp. Here in Texas, we don't have the fish camps like one would find in the NE or NW.
What I call fish camp, is where 4 of us bought lake lots next to each other and all go there to fish all night and keep certIn Canadian Distilleries in business. The smoker is to make sure our hangovers, I mean lack of sleep, is fed well!
However, I could see some salmon or trout suspended on smoke racks and rocking in that UDS!
Thanks Brian! Hope y'alls Thanksgiving was a good one. Ya know i wish this site had better detail in the pictures because it was glistening in juice, the pics didn't do it justice.
Thanks! Just trying to think outside the box a little...worked fantastic. Hopefully it'll inspire others.
